NISMO Rear Spoiler - Need Advice!
I am thinking of putting the Nismo Aero Kit on my Z. The only thing I am concerned about (other than the bigger whole in my pocket that this Z is making) is rear view obstruction from the spoiler. I currently have the stock Aero kit on my car. Does anyone out there have the Nismo spoiler on their Z and can tell me if it obstructs alot of your rear view? If you have some pictures of the rear view with the spoiler on, I would really appreciate it... Thanx

OK....is just me or does the Nismo rear wing ( or any wing for the Z ) just look plain UGLY!!! I just think think that having any kind of rear wing / spoiler would ruin the lines of this beautiful car. Personally I would love to get a spoiler on my car but I have yet to come across one that I acutally like.

I like the NISMO spoiler. I think all of the other spoilers I have seen on this Z look atrocious. But the NISMO spoiler, in my opinion, adds a bit more "sporty" into this already sporty car. I am just concerned of my rear view, which as you all know is small enough to begin with.

I've got the NISMO spoiler on my car is it looks awesome. Yea, it takes away from the visibility, but not enough to be concerned about. And trust me, I've recieved LOTS of compliments on how bad *** it looks!

Its just you
to me the Z needs some sort of rear spoiler... the back is just too round HOWEVER I havent seen many I like, they all seem just stuck on because the cars back end is so round...

ive been in a few Z's that have the V1 spoiler and i didnt think it obstructed the view too bad at all.
but your big problem is gonna be one similar to mine. if you already have the OEM spoiler your gonna have holes onless you get a JDM one or certain replicas that have the wider base.
i screwed up. i didnt have the oem spoiler on mine but a few months after i got the Z in 2002 i had it put on. that next year all the nismo stuff came out. but since i have the authentic JDM kit i dont want to put a replica on my car and the V2 wing is to pricey for me right now so im just staying with the OEM spoiler with the kit.
i think it looks just fine. you might wanna try this look as an alternative

I bought my Nismo replica spoiler from Perf.nissan, it's actually called a techno spoiler made by VIS racing and it covers and actually reuses the existing holes.
